sketch of the protectionist and his dupes :
Let me illustrate. I go, like an sss, into tbe
axe-handle business. I find that it won't pay.
Axe-bandles can be bought cheaper in Canada
than I can make them, so I hasten up to Con?
gress and state my grievance. It is a great in?
terest, says the Bophulchral Kelley, and must be
Srotected. It is a great interest, echoes Moore
ead. Wilson, Sherman, Wade k Co. It ls a
great interest, shrieks the Tribune et al; and
forthwith a law is passed forcing every man
purchasing an axe-handle tn nay me fifty cents
instead of twenty-five. This ia called a protec?
tion to Amerioan industry. That is, it pro?
tects my industry at the expense of the wood?
chopper. But then he had no business to be a

STARTLING STORIES ABOUT THE FILIBUSTERS
Pr?sidant Or ?nt Polle the Wires-A
Tong Charleston i an and a. Confede?
rate General tako a lin.nd-Thc Ameri?
cans to ne Meld If anales*.
There are ?? macy persona iu diaries ton
who are now, or who have bteu, engaged in
tho Coba trade, that great interest has been
shown in regard to everything that relatos to
the progress of the Coban insurrection. We can?
not say that the popular feeling has altogether
been on the side of the "rebels," for men have
contrasted the moreilees manner in which the
Southern "rebels" were treated with the ex?
pressions of profuse sympathy which the
North can find for " the rebels" in Cuba and
Crete. Tet there has been a restlessness
among the people whieh betokens the awaken?
ing of the old spirit of adventure and ro?
manos. This is particularly tho case among
the young men, and for weeks past it has been
rumored that expeditions in aid of the Cuban
insurrectionists were fitting ont on the Geor?
gia and Carolina coast.
We have not been able to obtain suoh infor?
mation as would justify us in saying positively
that any of these expeditions have actually
reached their destination. Indeed, a too
great publicity would awaken the vigilanoe of
the Spanish spies, and make a successful land?
ing difficult to any bot such men as those who
ran the blockade of Charleston so often during
the late unpleasantness. We may, however,
without compromising anyone say that Captain
Frank 15 juneau, one of our most skillful mari?
ners and bravest men, has safely arrived in
Cuba. Of him no more must be said at this
moment.
A few days ago some surprise was excited
by the arrival in Charleston of General Jordan,
formery chic! of staff of General Beauregard.
This officer moved about very quietly, and no
suspicions as to his real objeot were entertain?
ed until it was found that ho had disappeared
from the city. The report is, and we have no
reason to doubt its correctness, that General
Jordan has sailed for Cuba.
Bat this is not all. From what has leaked
out since the departure of General Jordan it is
understood that he is in full aoo ord with Presi?
dent Grant, and is anting with his knowledge
and consent. The new President has already
said that Spain is entitled to no consideration
at the hands of the United States, and he is
known to be strongly in favor of the acquisi?
tion of moro territory. Cuba would be a dainty
morsel for the Radicals, There would be half
a million of negroes to vote, and legislate and
play "Old Harry ' with the prosperity of the
island; and there wou d be as many white men
to rule by martial law, to New Englandize, and,
finally, lo reconstruct. No wonder that Grant
should be in favor ot acquiring Cuba. It is
true that there may be a lion in the path, bnt
an excuse can be found for the suspension of
diplomatic relations. This could not better be
done than on the plea that Spain was insulting
and injuring American citrons. This may be
the reason why General jordan, it is said, has
been assursd by President Grant that if he
falls "into the hands of the Spaniards no* hair!(
of his hoad shall be injured, and that no Amer?
ican who takes part in the insurrection shall
be improperly treated by the loyalists.
This is the story as it comos to ns, and we
should not be surprised if there were more
startling developments in the course of the
next few weeks.

[FBOM OTJB OWN CORBE8PONDENT.]
COLUMBIA, S. C., March 8,1869.-The House
of Representatives to-day exhibited a curious
scene. From 12 M. to about 4:50 P. M. was
spent in filibustering motions on the second
reading and passage of the first section of the
bill to aid the extension of the Union and
Spartanburg Railroad. One of the most trou?
blesome features in the new constitution of
the State is that providing that the yeas and
nays of tho members of either house, on any
question, shall, at the desire of any two mem?
bers present, be entered on the journals.
Under the old constitution the call for the yeas
and nays required the rising of seven members.
It was then a more difficult matter to raise the
call. Now the whims or caprice of any two mem?
bers can put a check for days, or oven weeks,
upon the most important legislation. To-day,
while proceeding with the oall, some member
would rise and ask leave to explain his vote
On the question of granting leave the yeas and
nays would be demanded, and in the midst of
this eil! another member would rise and ask
leave to explain his vote on the question of
granting leave, when the yeas and nays would
also be demanded on that question, and so on
ad infinitum. In this way the House was kept
calling thc yeas and nays for four or five hours.
The result no doubt will be another postpone?
ment of the tune for adjournment, and the re?
scinding of the resolution to adjourn on the
40 th.
IN TUX HOUSE, to-day, W. J. McKinlay moved
to amend section 1 of the Spartanburg and
Union Railroad bill, by striking out the word
"whenever." in the first Une, and inserting in
lieu thereof the words "if upon the 1st day of
January, 1871," satisfactory evidence is given
to the Governor that $100,000 has been sub?
scribed, then coupon bonds of the State to the
same shall be delivered to the president.
Nothing was done with this amendment,
although there was filibustering for several
hours.
Peri tor introduced a bill to provide the mode
and terms on which the property and stock of
the Laurens Railroad Company subject to Usu
in favor of the State may be sold. Bead the
first time, and referred to ths^Oommlttee on

THE NEW C'AJDINET.
HOW THE ANNOUNCEMENT WAS REOTifVED IN
CONG HESS-A POLITICAL BOMBSHELL.
COMMENTS OF THE NORTHERN 1?RB8S ON
THE APPOINTMENTS.
Tiie Northern paper? ?rs filled xith amusing
details concerning the announcement of Presi?
dent Grant's Cabinet ministers to Congress,
and the excitement and consternation attend?
ing the event. The correspondent of th3 New
York World, writing on Friday, says :
The six cats which President Grant let out
of the bag to-day, jumped into the Cabinet with
marvellous celerity and ease The Senate did
not even nay boo to them, but stroked them on
the b&ok, auowed them to bo good pussies, and
permitted them all to stay snug. Tho appear?
ance of these remarkable grimalkins was, ne?
vertheless, a surprise to ' everybody, the mern*
bore of the Senate included. There is but little
doubt that the President kept bis proposed
Cabinet nominations seem from all save his
wife, and, perhaps, from ono or two of the ap?
pointees, until after the official envelopes which
he sent to tho Senate haddmen opened in the
prosonco of tho wholo .jody. Gentlemen
in Washington, who ^fc?e prominently
canvassed for Cabinet place s, certainly profess?
ed to know nothing abnuetthe matter. The
crowds at the inauguration ball last night
beard not an authentic whisper breathed con?
cerning it, and among tho thousands who
flocked to the capitol this* forenoon to await
the tidings, there was not one man who knew,
although there were many who were willing to
bet that this man or that man would be ap?
pointed. The Senate, called to order at noon,
continued in open session until precisely four?
teen minutes before two o'clock, when General
Rawlings, of the President's staff, appear?
ed, and announced tltat he had two
messages in writing from the President
addressed to the Senate, These commu?
nications having been conveyed to the Vice
president's desk, the Senat?, on the motion of
Mr. Edmunds, went into executive session as
soon as the galleries were cleared. The nows of
General Rawlings* arrival was almost instan?
taneously conveyed (trever? part of the capitol,
and General Rawlings, coming out of the main
door of the capitol, after he had delivered the
two sealed envelopes, was set upon at once by
several acquaintances, who begged him to re?
veal what tho envelopes contained. ''Upon my
honor," said the General, "I know as little
about it as you do." Just then the venerable
but profane editor of thc ?New York Tribune
happened to be conversing with the Hon.
Elihu fi. Washburne in tho ?oom of the House
Committee on Appropriations, at the other ond
of the capitol. The third person in the room
was the derk of the committee, Mr. R. J.
Stevens, who, having hoard what proved to be
a reliable rumor, that Mr. Washburne was to
have one ol tbe debatable secretaryships,
told Mr. Washburne what h? had heard. Mr.
Washburne averred that ho had received no in?
timation that a Cabinet placo would be tender?
ed him, and that the report probably had no
foundation. Before this asseveration had fair?
ly left his mouth, a fourth person entered the
apartment in baste, and informed "the father
of the House" that he had actually been nomi?
nated as Secretary of State; Mr. Washburne
received the assurance with some remaining
doubt, and Hr. Greeley, without uttering a
word of congratulation, turned omi went out of
the door. I >the meantime the Senate, closet?
ed behind, tosed doors, had silently listened
to the dei a's reading of rbefjttominations.
Tito News Loafers Out.
The dense masses without watched every j
door on three aides of the chamber, expecting
the advent of some senator who would tefl ;
them what was going on. Three correspond?
ents of the press who stood near the west door
of the private lobby in. flu- jr ar of the cham?
ber, .first obtained tho se?#. ?foonator <3or*uess
oponed that door, and was unceremoniously
seized and dragged through it into the lobby
by three eager pairs of hands. "Tell us quick;
who are they?" demanded the correspondents,
in tones that would not be denied. "Draw
?rour pencils, then,': said Mr. Oonness. "and be
ively." "Washburne, Secretary of Stats 1
Good Lord 1" groaned one of the three, inscrib
ingWashburne's name. Two minutes afterwards
the rival correspondents were running a wild
race down stairs, and through the capitol base?
ment to the nearest telegraph office, and in less
than ten minutes the new Cabinet was bulletin'
ed throughout the United States. Without
debate, but with a good deal of secret disap?
pointment and disgust, the Senate proceed?
ed to confirm the nominations. When Mr.
Bone's name was read. Senator Howe involun?
tarily asked, "Who is Bone?" Whereupon
Mr. Cameron arose and described the antece?
dents and character of the Secretary of the
Navy. "Well," said Mr. Howe, resignedly,
"let him pass, the League Island job will, of
course, be all tho safer." Washburne's name
was the hardest to swallow. N? senator was so
insensible as not to recognise the motive
which must have prompted the President to
asssign his best and bravest friend to a posi?
tion for which he is considered to be quite unfit?
ted. But grave senators smiled sardonic
smiles when they thought of snob a boisterous,
ungovernable temper as Hr. Washburne's hav?
ing to deal with affairs so delicate and supremo
as those of the Department of State. Mr. Fas?
senden, turning to his neighbor, was under?
stood to observe that "it was just to expect -
that a Secretary of State should at least be
familiar with the English language. Mr.Wash?
burne, when he made a speech on the floor of
the House, almost invariably tripped in bis
Byntax; but perhaps, as ho was never troubled
by too great familiarity with his own language,
foreign languages will not trouble him at ail."
Mr. Fenton said of the nomination of Alexan?
der T. Stewart, that "it was a surprise." In?
deed, it was a terrible surprise, not only to
Fenton, but to all Fenton's friends.
Mutterings ot trae Comiala; Storm.
The Connecticut men bewailed the loss of
the secretaryship of the navy on the ground
that the State had earned a sort of prescriptive
right to it. fdr Buchanan, said they, appoint?
ed Mr. Toucey, a good Connecticutter; he
served four years. Mr. Lincoln appointed Mr.
Welles; he has served eight years. These
Connecticut men have done long, if not excel?
lent, service. Why should the State be de?
prived of the privilege of saying: "This is my
son in the Cabinet ?"
So did and do the Massachusetts men, won?
dering at the selection 01 Judge Hoar. They
complain that one of the more celebrated per?
sons of that celebrated State was not the lucky
one, and States north, south, east and west de?
mand, through the mouths of their citizens, to
be informed by any one who has the wit to tell
why this Cabinet hasn't got one of their cham?
pion notorieties tn it. iowa and the whole
Mor th wea t are especially indignant because Mr.
Wilson did not get his expected deserts. Mr.
Wilson himself, while walking down Pennsyl?
vania Avenue this evening with a blatant anti
conservative acquaintance, was observed to il?
lustrate his disgust with ardent gesticulations.
How different would it have been with i?r. Wil?
son, if he had been allowed by the patronage
or the President and the grace of the Senate
to cali himself Secretary of the Interior on this
boisterous eve of the 5th of March, 1809. But
the crowd passed him hy as it passed by ev**/
one to-day who was not a member of the new
Cabinet, or who was not pleased to bear the
new Cabinet talked about. Men and boys,
women and girls, babbled of nothing but the
Cabinet, the Cabinet, all the .day and evening
long.
The Trlbnue't Aceouat- '?r*at IJI^ap.
polntment aft ?lae Capitol."
The Washington correspondent of the frt?
buna writes :
The agony is over. The long 1 cooked for
Cabinet is announced. Everybody is com?
menting on the appointments and discussing
the merits of the men whom President Grant
bas selected tor his immediate and confidential
advisers. It is difflouit to give a fair idea ol
the popular feeling, but there is no disguising
the ?Ot that the announcement caused great
disappointment at the capital. Messrs. Wash?
burne and Creswell ?re looked upon as the
only politicians of national reputation among
the selection. The appointment of the former
was a surprise. It was generally supposed
that bis ill-health would compel him to forego
accepting any position under the new adminis?
tration, unless it were a foreign mission} but
general satisfacen is expressed at the
appointment,. and all agree that Kr.
,<4mat, m Mr. Washburne. has ?elected
a man of sound integrity, pTtl?*^ength of
character, an unflinohioK Bepublicao, and one
whose long and fruitful career as a pabilo man
in eve y way Ats him for his now duties. After
Mr. Washburn*, the appointment of ex-Sena?
tor Cresswell, of Maryland, appears most satis?
factory Be la well known to mott of the prom
?-.fit- ? -. ? v- ,"".... 'J\' f ... '. "'? ?',.:'.
inent public mon' now in Congress, and they,
with great unanimity, applaud the selection.
Hie appointment, however, won also a surprise.
Ho ia looked upon as an extreme Radical Re?
publican, and was strongly recommended by
the Radical element of both Houses ot Con?
gress. Tho appointmedt ot Mr. 8tewart WSB
apparently the greatest surprise of them
all. He was considered as out of the list
of probable candidates, and public sentiment
pointed to either Fish, Piefrepont or Gris?
wold as the only men from whom New
York's representativo would be chosen. Con?
gressmen and others could scarcely believe
that Stewart was the man. Many had made
up their mindi that Boutwell would succeed
Mr. Mcculloch, and tho general desire for li i a
selection made tito nomination of Stewart a
koon disappointment. But it seems that Presi?
dent Grant had offered tho portfolio of the
Treasury to Mr. Boutwell, and that gen tleraan
bad declined to accept. He gave as his rea?
sons that ho desired remaining a member of
tbe House of Representatives. Tho othor
nominees are comparatively unknown. The
Massachusetts people speak in high terms of
Mr. Hoar, tho new Attorney-General. They Bay
he is an able lawyer and an ardent Republican.
Ohioans do not appear very enthusiastic
over General Coxae Secretary of the Interior.
Mr. Borie is probably the loast known man of
the seven. He is an excellent man, and will
be generally acceptable. Mr. Borie was in the
city, and when he heard of his appointment
lett immediately far his home in Philadelphia.
A ramor prevails that he will not accept, and
will so inform the President to-morrow. This,
however, cannot be traced to any trustworthy
source. Some surprise is felt in the absence
of Wilson, of Iowa, from the Cabinet. There
is an impression prevailing that he will yet be
called upon to assn me control of one of the do
Bartments, which one it is hard to fore toll,
onie say that Washburn? will decline -if not
immediately, in a few months-others are of
the opinion that General Cox will not accept,
and in that event Mr. Wilson will be made Sec?
retary of the Interior. All this, however, is
mere surmising.
Tbe Times' Account-"Great Disappoint?
ment and Profound Regret."
The correspondent of the New York Times
writes:
Tho announcement caused universal sur
EriBo; everybody was prepared to be surprised,
ut the reality was greater than the expecta?
tion. It is difficult to describe tue effect, and
it is a painful duty to say that great. disap
pointment and profound rogrot prevails in con?
sequence Of those selections, and this too, not
in the minds of politicians, nor in the
minds of those not chosen, but among the
the warmest admirers and stoutest supporters
of the President. The eminently respectable
character of the men is everywhere conceded,
but their fitness for their peculiar positions is
the subject of criticism ou every hand.
The selection of ex-Senator Cresswell, of
Maryland, for Postmaster-Genera], probably
gives more general satisfaction than any other
name on the list. He is the best representa?
tive loyal Southern man that could be found,
and will make an excellent administrative
officer. Judge Hoar, of Massachusetts, as
Attorney-General, is also satisfactorily receiv?
ed in " respects, Bave that the people of Mas?
sachusetts expected and hoped for another
man and another position. Mr. Waahburna,
there is good reason for believing, will remain
in the Department of State for but a short
time. His appointment is said to have sur?
prised him as much as it did anybody. Mr.
(stewart was in the room of the sergeant-al?
arms ot the Senate when the announcement
was made, and seemed much affected by the
intelligence, although he had been apprized of
the fact early in the day. He waited on the
President this afternoon, and accepted the
Office with the promise that he would use his
best abilities and energies to promo.o the in?
teresta of the government.
On the reception of the news in the House,
the confusion became so great that a recess of
ten minutes waa ordered, and the" subject waa
eagerly and excitedly discussed among all
classes of members.
The feeling in Washington is not, perhaps, a
reflex of the feelinar elsewhere, but the feel?
ing here among all classes and shades of Re?
publicans is one of severe disappointment.
To say anything else is to misrepresent the
actual fact. There is, however, an entire
and cheerful willingness to wait and see the
wisdom of the selections demonstrated.
The Herald's Account-What tike People
Said.
The correspondent of the New York Herald
after noticing the reception of the Dominations,
says :
The names were soon circulating in every
direction. The telegraph itself could not have
communicated them more rapidly than they
were transmitted from one part o? the capitol
to the other, and from the capitol itself all
around* the ;own.
"Borie for tbe Navy I" exclaims one. "Who
in the world is Borie? Where does he como
from? What's his business? Borie ! JBorie !
Borie I That's a queer nomination. Can any?
body tedi me who Borie is?"
*'Yes, sir," responded another: "he is a Penn?
sylvanian; a good man, too-A No. 1,"
"Never heard of him bef_>re. He can't be
much. Grant has Indeed kept his promise
about the Pennsylvania representative. He
has surprised everybody. Who did you say
was for Attorney-General ?"
"Hoar-Judge Hoar, of Massachusetts."
"Bless my soul t I never heard of him be?
fore 1"
'?Very distinguished lawyer, however, I can
tell you, and a man who will do honor to the
position."
"it may be sir; I don't dispute it."
"BatI dol" exclaimed a third; "Hoar isa
man I know something of. He is one of your
stiff aristocrats; sour as a crab apple, too;
no sympathy, no heart; all intellect and very
selfish.
"What Cox 1B it that has the Interior De?
partment ?" asked a fourth.
"Why. don't you know? There is only one
man of the name of prominence in Ohio. It is
ex-Iieatenant Governor Cox, the man who
would not accept the Oommissionership of In?
ternal Revenue."
"Ohl that is tbe mao, is it? Strong appoint?
ment; good mani Stewart, then, is the man
for Ute Treasury; Washburne in the State De?
partment."
"He won't accept that: he wants to go to Eu?
rope to recruit his health."
"Yes he will; he'll take it temporarily any
how; I know that."
"New York carries off the bi? pill, after all.
I think Stewart is the strongest of the batch.
He will administer the Treasury on practical
principles, not as an empirical quack.*
On? heard questions, answora end observar
tiona like these on every sile. Little groups
were gathered in corners and window recesses
discussing tho merits ol the candidates. Some
talked quite excitedly and mada speeches.
One person, much angered at Stewart's nomi?
nation, was pitobing in very freely. "Issy
Grant has made a fine mess of it. Stewart is
no true Republican; he did all he could to as?
sise Johnson at the Philadelphia Convention,
and tried to whitewash Johnson so as to make
him appear like a decent white man, wbioh he
is not. Now, I say a man who, like Stewart,
would do that has no claim ?pou the BspsbH
can party, and ought not to be honored with a
Cabinet appointment"
"It's not true," interrupted a listener to this
harangue, "that stewart is not a good Repub?
lican. Ho is sound to the backbone. He did
not endorse Johnson's extraordinary policy.
He IB with Congress and Grant on o ll the im?
portant* questions of reconstruction, finance
and retrenchment. He will make a splendid
head for the Treasury Department."
"So say ir "And II" "And* I" shouted
several in the crowd.
"All right, gentlemen: well sae who's right,
ii urant don't repent his action I'm a fish Pvre?
torted the excited an ti-S te wart man, and moved
off.
lt would be useless to repeat the observa?
tions further. It will a um oe for all purpose*
that the varieties ot opinions expressed were
remarkable, but that, sura ming the whole thing
hp, the majority was favorable to Grant's ap?
pointees.
Comments of Ana Piree*.
Greeley telegraphs from Washington to the
Nsw York. Tr tb une as follows :
Th? new Cabinet means business emphati?
cally. Each man was chosen by General Gran!
expressly to aid him lu carrying out the pro
! gramme of economy and integrity embodied ix
tho inaugural.
Mr. A. T. Stewart was nelse tod as that mat
whose very name would give another assuranci
that our debt would be pata to I he almost
and as fast as oar creditors can desire. Mr
Stewart has only to apply to tho <y>l!?tion tm
. I disburaoment of the revenue on the same priu
; olples and methods wbioh have secured bin
auch eminent buce?se es a merchant, to restore
tho government to solvency and financial pros?
perity. He ia not a politician, and ho will
manage the Treasury purely as a business con?
cern, with intent to raise tho largest possible
revenue at the smallest cost, whether to tho
people or the government. He cannot fail.
The Hon. E. B. Washburne has fought so
vigorously and successfully in Congress against
corruption ?;i?d prodigality mat he could not
be spared from a reforming Cabiuet. His
health is very poor, and be is most reluctant
to take any appointment that keeps bim in
Washington. On these grounds ho at first re?
solved not to accept, but it is hoped that his
repugnance will be overcome, even though he
should not be able to serve through General
Grant's term.
Probably no single member of the Cabinet
had any reason to suppose bis name on the
slato till it went into tho Senate to-day.
[From the New York World.l^
Nobody will doubt that General Grant's
whimsical pretence of composing his Cabinet
without anybody's advice wan quite sincere.
He bas not only deviated from the beaten
path, but deviated into absolute oddity; having
made such a Cabinet as no politician would
have advised, such a Cabinet as no newspaper
could have conjectured, a Cabinet which fills
his political opponents with wonder, and bis po?
litical friends i with suppressed dismay. There
baa never beiore been a Cabinet formed at the
beginning of an administration, which did not
contain at least one or two men ot first-rate
standing and recognized eminence in the
politics of the country. Take it all in all, the
new Cabinet is "fearfully and wonderfully
made." The only hypothesis by which we oan
explain its formation is, that General Grant
means to be the candidate of the Republican
Earty for a second term, and will tolerate in
u) Cabinet no statesman from whom ho
would have anything to fear as a rival.
[From the New York Times.]
The Cabinet as a whole will not commend
itself to the favor of politicians, because it has
not been taken from their ranks; nor are the
men who compose it sufficiently well known to
the public at large to command in advance the
full confidence ot the community. But in tho
very freshness of its character, in the fact that
its members are business men rather than pol?
iticians, and are likely to make the practical in?
terests of the country their first care, we Bee
ground for bel evmg that the Cabinet will, by
its practical working, vindicate the wisdom ot
its selection.
[From tho New York Herald.]
The Cabinet of President Grant, though
promptly confirmed, will puzzle the politicians.
With nil their guesses and conjectures, cover?
ing what was supposed to be the whole field
of probabilities, not one of them, nor all of
them together, hit the mark beyond ono or two
members. They were all on the wrong tack
in assuming that, after the established prac?
tice, the Cabinet would be chosen from the moat
conspicuous lights and managers of the dornt
nant party, such as Wilson, Stanton, Curtin
md Old Ben Wade. This rule of selecting from
the head politicians of the party was more
strikingly illustrated in the original Cabinet of
Abraham Lincoln than in any other, though
the folly, of snob selections waa sufficiently
Ero ved by poor Pierce and Buchanan. The
armomzing of the different personal oliqnes
af the party has been the governing idea of
this practice, and it was nndsr this delusion
that Linooln committed his greatest mistake.
He thought that by gathering his rivals in the
Ohisago Convention about him he would
reconcile them to the situation and with each
other; but from the beginning to the end,
with their selfish intrigues against eaoh other
and against him, they were n constant souroe
of trouble to their ohief. Indeed, had not
Lineolu been a marvel of amiability, patience
and resignation be could not have endured
such annoyances for one bummer.
President Grant has not followed this foolish
and mischievous practice. He has not chosen
to have a set of politicians around 'him, who
ro'ghfc aarnime tho right to chalk oat his polio v,
aa in the oaae of Pierce; or set themselves jap
as his masters, as in the case of Buchanan; or
who would be likely to raise a hornet's nest
about his ears in their plots aud counterplots
for the succession, as in the case of Lincoln.
On the contrary, we see in this new Cabinet
that Grant has given the managing Republican
politicians a wide berth ; that he has chosen
his men for business and as his subordinates,
and with not the remotest idea tbatrthey are
to be his mi ..tere or his coequals m the admin?
istration. ile has utterly ignored the Cabinet
theory of McClure, and bas so lee tod his
men as his fr ends, his assistants and his sec?
retaries, and each mainly in reference to the
Bpocial duties ot his department; Bat the
moral of this Cabinet is that it is President
Grant's Cabinet, and that he intends to be the
master of his administration.
[Tram the Baltimore Oasatte ]
The names will be reooived by the country
with profound astonishment, and, if we mis?
take not, with mingled feelings of bitter disap?
pointment and deeper indignation. All who
trusted in General Grant, and very many of
those who mistrusted him, had hoped that he
would realiza the critical condition in which
the country now stands, and that he would
summon around him men of recognized ability
and patriotism. He has thought proper, how?
ever, to name for his Cabinet officers individu?
als who are only known to tho public as profes?
sional patriots and shifty politicians. There is
not one among them who bears an established
oharacter for disinterestedness, or who is enti?
tled to be classed among statesmen.
